Too much work...

These last couple of weeks were strange. Most of my customers simply disappeared, bands were separated, musicians became sick, and in no time I had an almost empty week at the studio, and many expensive bills to pay.

This happens frequently, economic crisis is part of our life here, but this time it´s taking my free time to gather new customers. Last week I couldn´t even find time to open Game Maker to, at least, lay some tiles anywhere.

The project had these kind of delays before, but this is the first big one you people witness.I had no news on HyruleSwordsMan lately, he surely is busy too.

Anyway. I´ll try to solve my work troubles as soon as possible, and make a teaser video with some Gamma Metroid footage.Thank you very much for following the project, for your great comments, and for your patience.

Hey, we all go through tough times in life. We understand, and anyone else who has tried to make a game before surely knows how hard it is to find enough time for it. No matter how long it takes, I'm supporting this project as much as possible.

Doc, don't trip dude. Take your time, we already set our minds on waiting for your final product and I hope I can speak on behalf of all the patient ones out there, we're patiently waiting. It's not like our lives depend on this remake but please do not burn yourself out stressing over this. I hope things get better for you, dude. Take care

Don't worry about RL conflicts. That takes priority. Not like your fans are gonna up and disappear :P I'm co-lead tester for a Half-Life mod that's been in development for over 10 years now :P Aside from a few open betas, we haven't put anything out in like 4 years. (hopefully we'll finish in 2009 :P ) So yeah, RL first, then fan project :P

Jake in Indy, USA here. I know how tough it is to find time to do side-projects--especially ones that don't pay money! What I can tell you is I've seen your work and think you're doing an amazing job. Take your time.

That's kinda ironic. I'm working on a freeware game and I'm having a hard time figuring out what I should do for the bosses and dungeon designs at the same time you're in a slump. But it's okay, everyone has thier ups and downs in life and eventually after all your work big things are going to happen with your life. Especally if Nintendo actually notices the project and interviews you or something. Not that the same thing is going to happen to me...

dude, no problem here at all. you got nothing to worry about. we can wait as long as it takes (at least i will). metroid II was my very first gameboy game, and this remake wil truly have replay value. i wish for you good fortune in these tough times. peace :)

Take all the time you need maybe give you nerves to work weell, it's what i think but noo, you just do what you have to do in your private life, like other bussiness and there it will be some free time to work on an advance for the Project, so be patient you to, i know DoctorM64 that you to want to finish this ever-game-waited but you will make it in time, forget the stress(haha i don't know very well english jeje) and keep moving cause you gonna make it!!
